On Tuesday, June 7 my wife had a heavy fall in Trinity Street, Dorchester.

We would like to pass on our grateful thanks to the lady with the pram who stopped to help and brought a chair out of a shop close by and the gentleman who phoned for the ambulance.

Thanks to the ambulance staff who took us to A&E at Dorchester and when we arrived the the staff who were so helpful and careing.

Nurse Jane, the doctor and everyone you all deserve medals. Thank goodness there are so many caring people around.
